RANT: My gaming club had to move across town this weekend and we had way too much stuff (and then there was cleaning as well). Also, my friend was too tired/unfocused to end the weekend with roleplaying our solo campaign so after all that work I didn't even get any roleplaying done!

RAVE: During the move I could grab a Blood Bowl team that someone had left behind so now I can facemelt my frfiend's Undead team with my Mighty Orcs.

You know what's a real pain? I love martial arts and am completely willing to dedicate myself to a school, but none exist within my living area! (At least none that can be reached within a practical regular time frame.) Don't even get me started on finding a good sword instructor!

Rant: I hate the standard practice of 'Release the dead-tree copy first, then the PDF later'. I mean, I get why they do it. I just don't like it.

Rave: I live with a lake outside my apartment, and every day, I see a new animal out there, it seems. Just this morning, some big white duck is hanging around bossing around the mallards. It's quite delightful

RANT: Gencon is over! I didn't get to hang out with half the people I wanted to, but half the games I wanted to, or play half the games I wanted to! I had a GM no-show, I had a company not honor my generic tickets at a big event, I didn't get the signatures I wanted for my wife's birthday present, and my feet hurt!

RAVE: Gencon is over. I'm home in one piece, I did get to hang out with some of the people I wanted to, I picked up two new systems, I got my wife a cool Dresden Files bracelet she loved, and I got to sling dice in three new games (including EP, which I've been wanting to try for years)...and sore feet'll heal. ;)

Rant(s): bureaucracy can't seem to decide if I get food-assistance or not, as I've been getting multiple contradictory notices. Last counselor appointment canceled due to unending snow. Significant other won't stop noisily slurping snot out of their nose and eating it. Losing access to a vehicle in about 6 weeks. Social/political/religious views have alienated all but 2 members of my family, my dad and my grandmother. Still waiting to get in front of a judge (with my lawyer) for my SSI case, and it's been something like 8 months since appealing. Haven't had a chance to play a tabletop game for years, or GM for months.

Rave: With practice, I'm finally starting to be able to form mental imagery.
